Ingredients

For the Tortilla Strips:

  • 4 small corn tortillas fresh
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

How to Prepare:

  • Step 1: Preheat Your Oven - Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Step 2: Slice the Tortillas - On your cutting board, stack the corn tortillas. Use a sharp knife to slice them into strips about 1/2 inch wide.
  • Step 3: Toss with Olive Oil - In a medium-sized bowl, combine the tortilla strips with the olive oil. Toss them gently until they are evenly coated.
  • Step 4: Season with Salt - Add a pinch of salt to the bowl and toss again, adjusting the salt according to your taste preferences.
  • Step 5: Arrange on a Baking Sheet - Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the tortilla strips in a single layer on the sheet.
  • Step 6: Bake to Perfection - Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through.
  • Step 7: Cool and Enjoy - Once baked, remove the tortilla strips from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
